Even under normal circumstances, July in Phoenix is a tough slog.

Toss in a pandemic and travel restrictions and it’s tough to find an escape.

For the Zoom For Dummies book trailer, I decided to geek out and interview a cartoon version of myself. (A few years ago, I had created a few caricatures via the defunct site BitStrips.)

Seth MacFarlane certainly doesn’t have to worry, but I’m reasonably pleased with the result. Oh, and that beeping is very much a hat tip to Buster Bluth of Arrested Development.

Pre-order the book now. We’re targeting shipment by the end of the month.
